MILLER Antoinette Jean February 18, 1916 - July 9, 2010. Another Star now shines in the Heavenly sky...on July 9th, 2010. Antoinette Jean Miller (Nee Coderre) left this world, to be welcomed into the next by the loving arms of her husband Jack, ten siblings and many friends. Mom will be forever remembered for her strength and determination. For even though a stroke left her with physical challenges, her mind remained clear and strong allowing her to continue doing things she enjoyed crocheting, knitting, bowling, armchair exercises, bingo and playing Rummy O - of which she won most games. Mom was a talented seamstress and it was always a pleasure to see the beautiful things that she’d have hanging in her sewing room. Many a bride and her attendants, wore gowns made by Mom. She was also clever at making alterations, if something didn’t fit just right, Mom would put her pincushion onto her wrist a few straight pins into her mouth and within minutes she’d have it pinned and stitched to perfection. Handy with her hands, Mom loved trying out all kinds of crafts, and we are fortunate to have things she handmade as keepsakes, whether it’s a crocheted doily or blanket, a beautiful ceramic figurine or a knitted dishcloth, we will treasure them. No one ever left Mom’s home hungry, she enjoyed cooking and baking and was interested in trying out new recipes. Our family always looked forward to her cream puffs, crab chip dip and her specialty, kooka. In Mom’s kitchen there was always enough for 'one more.' Mom so enjoyed visitors and in these last few years when speech was more difficult for her, she would welcome each and every one by reaching for their hand and placing it against her cheek. While we are saddened by our Mother’s death we celebrate her long life and feel so lucky to have had her as part of our lives for such a long time. She will remain forever in our hearts and memories. Anne’s family: Joyce (Don), Len (Marge), Jacqueline and Sharon, seven grandchildren and twelve great grandchildren. Special thanks to Father Nicholas, Dr. Kuhn, Bevan Lodge and the kind, caring staff at Worthington Pavilion. Interment Ocean View Burnaby
